We've finally decided on a name for our third DD. Shamefully, it was partly the utterly delicious Tom Hiddleston in The Night Manager who inspired it, and sadly not everyone who uses her name will be a tall gorgeous posh man with a sexy voice.

But I still love it, and it's the first name we've both agreed on and it feels right. So we're going with it, but I was just interested in hearing opinions.

Middle name is probably going to be Pearl but that may change.

I love it. When I was small my guinea pig was called Fluff Jemima and I used it as her second name because I loved it so much I wanted to reuse it in the future for a daughter lol. It is a lovely combination of posh and quaint and comfort.

My maternal Gran was a Jemima and she was as far from posh as you can get! Grin

She didn't like her name but I do!

Nothing wrong with posh names, they get normalised. Puddleduck and Goldsmith are prob the best known..
